EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "St. Leonard" by Hans Pleydenwurff, dating back to around 1460. The painting is a magnificent example of mixed technique, combining heavy canvas on panel, most likely made from pine wood. With its dimensions measuring 121.9x48.6 cm, this masterpiece can be found at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, USA. The figure depicted in the painting is St. Leonard himself, portrayed with great attention to detail and skillful brushwork by Pleydenwurff or an artist closely associated with him. The saint's portrait exudes a sense of solemnity and spirituality as he stands draped in flowing garments against a backdrop adorned with intricate wallpaper patterns. Noteworthy elements include the gilded halo that surrounds St. Leonard's head and the chains symbolizing his role as the patron saint of prisoners and captives. These details add depth and symbolism to the composition. Thanks to the generous gift from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation, art enthusiasts have had the privilege to admire this remarkable German artwork at one of America's finest museums. With its rich history and artistic brilliance captured through photography by Bridgeman Images, this print allows viewers worldwide to appreciate St. Leonard's timeless beauty for years to come while honoring its out-of-copyright status.
